The purpose of this article is to analyze the functioning of the public administration of the Chilean dictatorial State between 1973 and 1990. Specifically, based on a methodology based on a series of testimonies of civilian and military officials of the de facto government, the aim is to reconstruct the bureaucracy of the period, especially that of the first lines of command of ministries, undersecretaries and service chiefs. It is proposed that the classic Weberian bureaucratic model that had marked the public administration of the Chilean State had to be related to a new form of public management, coming from the private sphere. Thus, in order to neoliberalize the State, the authorities had to be able to reorient their classic strategic objectives towards the fulfillment of goals by results. Therefore, the new public official that emerged under the dictatorship was a technopolitician who, as a civilian, contributed his organizational culture based on expert knowledge learned in his business and/or academic spheres, as well as the military who, under his authoritarian hierarchical culture, reinforced the traditional way of exercising power within the state institutionality. Both organizational cultures were necessary in order to instrumentalize, through reason and force, the legitimizing principles underpinning neoliberalism.

From 1932 onwards, with the arrival of the presidency of the Council of Portugal, António Oliveira Salazar created a new regime of civil dictatorship, which had both similarities and differences with the fascist regime in Italy and the National Socialist regime in Germany. The main similarity of these political regimes was the aggressive activity of the secret state police. In this study, the author will try, in its first part, to make a comparative study between the PVDE (Polícia de Vigilância e Defesa do Estado - State Surveillance and Defense Police, 1933-1945) and the political police apparatus of fascist Italy, nationalsocialist Germany and Franco’s dictatorship in Spain during World War II. With the defeat of Fascism and Nazism, two dictatorial regimes remained in the Iberian Peninsula, whose political police were related to each other. In a second part of this article the author compares Portuguese PIDE (Polícia Internacional de Defesa do Estado - Portuguese International Police, 1945-1969) and later DGS (Drirecção-Geral de Segurança - Directorate-General of Security, 1969-1974), on the one hand, and Spanish Seguridad (Dirección-General de Seguridad - Directorate-General for Security), on the other.
从1932年开始,随着葡萄牙议会主席António的到来,Oliveira Salazar创建了一个新的公民独裁政权,这与意大利的法西斯政权和德国的国家社会主义政权既有相似之处,也有不同之处。这些政治制度的主要相似之处在于秘密国家警察的侵略性活动。在本研究中,作者将尝试在第一部分中对PVDE (Polícia de vigil ncia e Defesa do Estado -国家监视和国防警察,1933-1945)与二战期间法西斯意大利、民族社会主义德国和佛朗哥独裁统治下的西班牙政治警察机构进行比较研究。随着法西斯主义和纳粹主义的失败,伊比利亚半岛上留下了两个独裁政权,它们的政治警察相互关联。在本文的第二部分,作者一方面比较了葡萄牙的PIDE (Polícia Internacional de Defesa do Estado -葡萄牙国际警察,1945-1969年)和后来的DGS (drirec o- geral de segurana -安全总局,1969-1974年),另一方面比较了西班牙的Seguridad (Dirección-General de Seguridad -安全总局)。

In Argentina, the 1976 coup d’état was a change of political regime and not just a change of government, from one of democratic origin turned authoritarian to another with fascistic tendencies, since the constant amplification of the State of exception will constitute a structure of state power of fascist projection, whose central characteristics were the expansion of the repressive apparatus and the institutionalization of new branches of the State: the Detention and Extermination Centers and the Task Forces. The character of the regime, however, had a dense sedimentation that combined a complex axiology. The notion of exceptionality allows us to elaborate the problem from a stage prior to State terrorism and to observe how legal and political statutes, for example the exception, secrecy, and military intelligence in a framework of severe capitalist crisis, derived in authoritarian forms of democratic regime and were generating the conditions for the coup d’état. Once the last dictatorship occurred, the concept of exception gave us access to correlate the repressive model with the characteristics of the political regime.

During the Cold War, dozens of military governments existed in South America. Some lasted only days or weeks, while others lasted years and even decades. The human rights abuses carried out by these military governments have been well analysed, like Argentina’s Dirty War. However, an interesting fact about this period tends to be ignored: inter-state warfare between South American states, even during military governments, was very scarce. The Falklands / Malvinas war is the only case of a South American military government, Argentina, beginning a war against another state, the United Kingdom. There were other incidents that could have caused inter-state warfare during this era, but war was avoided. The only other inter-state war during the Cold War in South America happened in 1981 between Ecuador and Peru, both being under civilian rule. There were (and still are) reasons for South American states to attack one another, particularly to regain lost or disputed territory; however, as this essay demonstrates, war was almost non-existent. This essay will discuss why South American military governments did not attack their neighbours during this turbulent period.

The purpose of this work is to analyze the particular forms of government that arise under conditions of dependent capitalism. The author analyzes the features of the uneven development of dependent countries and suggests that in such countries a special form of development of capitalism has formed. As a theoretical basis, the author uses the Marxist theory of dependence. As a result of the study, the author concludes that a form of government in dependent states brings about conditions in which national resources and capital flow to developed capitalist countries. As a result dependent countries lose part of their sovereignty, and an authoritarian political regime based on the working class becomes a necessary condition for maintaining dependence on the capitalist center.

This article analyzes how the Covid-19 pandemic in Argentina modified communication both within the nursing sector, and with the people requiring treatment, their families or emotional ties, and institutional relations. Using a qualitative methodological strategy based on the analysis of interviews and the survey of national press, the authors organized three sections. The first section provides some notions about the characteristics of the health system and nursing education in Argentina. The second section analyzes the changes in hospital communication between nursing staff and patients with Covid-19 and, the third one describes communication experiences during the coronavirus vaccination campaign.

This article analyzes the extent to which the pandemic, the confinement situation, the evaluation of the policies and attitudes of the leaders affected the subjectivities of Argentine citizens. Special attention is paid to the influence of the strong political polarization that existed previously and, also, to the ways in which the pandemic itself could have influenced political subjectivities. In addition, we have studied the reflections that, in a pandemic context, the majority of the population made about the meaning of their lives, also relating them to their political orientations. To carry out these analyses, a series of surveys were carried out throughout the year 2021 and a sample of semi-structured interviews in the months of April and May of that same year.

Since its inception as a global pandemic, COVID-19 has been the subject of multiple appropriations around the world. With the possibility of writing and sharing information open due to current technological developments and digital media, a series of publications focused on reflecting on the impact of the pandemic around the world circulated during the first months of 2020.The aim of this article is to analyze these publications, taking them as a valuable input to delve into the reflections that, from culture and social sciences, emerged on the pandemic. What can these articles show us, already more than two years after being published? What were the main ideas, concerns and diagnoses? Beyond these questions, we are also interested in investigating the construction of a network of meanings and notions that began to be associated with the disease and that, in its pandemic context, we believe is highly relevant to understanding the meanings that were incorporated into this new virus as it spread across the globe.

Faced with the economic crisis unleashed by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Argentine government reacted by deploying an unprecedented assistance policy in terms of its scope, design and method of implementation. The aim of this article is to analyze the measures aimed at companies and formal workers deployed during the first year of the pandemic in Argentina to cushion the shock to economic activity. The authors analyze the creation and implementation of the Emergency Assistance to Work and Production program. The methodological strategy combined quantitative and qualitative analysis of official sources, regulations and a set of interviews conducted in 2021. The latter allowed the authors to recover the experience of perception of the benefits in the productive units located in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, as well as the mediation networks involved in this policy. The findings reveal the initially massive nature of the assistance, which later gave way to the segmentation of state aid. In the case of assistance to the formal sector, post-launch adjustments were not only due to fiscal reasons, but also to the learning process of the authorities, the intervention of sectoral representatives and the ability of digital platforms to focus aid on those most in need.

This article explores from a socio-epidemiological perspective the syndemic character acquired by the COVID-19 pandemic at the hospital level, belonging to the public health system in Argentina. Methodologically, semi-structured interviews were conducted with hospital workers from the southern area of the metropolitan region to the Federal Capital, by virtual meeting platforms, between the months of May and November 2021. The analysis of the narratives obtained about the experience of workers, makes it possible to understand certain dimensions that contribute to deepening the deterioration of working conditions, weakening and undermining the care and self-care processes of the workers themselves, linked not only to the imponderables of the pandemic being analyzed (while this occurs), but also to previous problems and are magnified during the epidemiological emergency. In this regard, the emergence of spaces for dialogue-collective work among workers is observed, as a fundamental cohesive force to promote any change or social transformation that materializes in a concrete way within the institution.
